"Patrick of First Coast welding was very professional and did an excellent job on our project. He did custom fabrication welding stainless steel on our boat. Patrick estimated the work and visited to review everything to make sure of what we needed. I strongly recommend First Coast Welding for any wedding project."

I’m a skilled welder with hands-on experience in fabrication, repair, and metal joining across a variety of materials like steel, stainless, and aluminum. I’ve worked with multiple welding processes, including MIG (GMAW), TIG (GTAW), and stick (SMAW), choosing the right method depending on the job’s strength, precision, and finish requirements.\n\nI take pride in reading blueprints accurately and translating them into clean, strong welds that meet both structural and aesthetic standards. Whether it’s building from scratch, repairing worn components, or doing detailed custom work, I focus on durability, safety, and precision.\n\nSafety is always a top priority for me—I’m trained in proper equipment handling, ventilation awareness, and protective procedures to ensure every job is done responsibly.\n\nI’m also someone who keeps learning—staying updated with new techniques, materials, and tools to improve efficiency and weld quality.

Welding questions, answered by experts

Professional metal fabricators typically charge around $70 per hour, but the total cost of your project will depend on several factors. The largest cost drivers are the size, complexity, and design of the project, as well as the price and type of metal used. A good way to estimate the total cost is to multiply the cost of raw materials by four; typically, one-quarter of the total goes toward materials and three-quarters toward labor. Your geographic location can also influence costs, as labor and material prices vary by region.

To maintain custom or fabricated metal structures and extend their lifespan and appearance, perform regular cleaning, apply rust prevention treatments, and use protective coatings.

It will likely take an experienced pro less than an hour to install a ground rod, which is another reason why letting them handle the job is such a good idea. Safety concerns aside, it would likely take you much longer to install a ground rod if you decided to take this one as a DIY job.

Cutting rectangular ductwork requires careful measurements and the right technique. Use a measuring tape and pencil to mark the cutting lines accurately. Tin snips are excellent for straight cuts on smaller ducts. For more extensive or thicker rectangular ducts, a reciprocating saw with a metal-cutting blade is effective. 

Ensure the duct is well-supported and secure while cutting to prevent wobbling and maintain precision. After cutting, use a metal file to smooth any sharp edges, ensuring safety during installation. 

While a high-speed circular saw will cut through metal, and even cut through multiple sheets at once, the fast-spinning saw blades create a lot of heat. This heat can damage paint and other protective coatings, leading to serious problems like rust over time. The cost to paint a metal roof again to avoid this damage is typically an additional $0.50 to $1 per square foot.
